Things to do in Calgary on Family Day

Family Day is coming up on February 15, so I thought I’d share a list of some great things to do in Calgary on Family Day that might be fun to try out, whether with your family, or maybe with friends that are just like your family! Exploring something new is a great way to spend a long weekend around the city.

Volunteer: See if any local organizations could use your help/time – maybe the Mustard Seed, Drop In Centre, SPCA, or your local arts or heritage organization. Some organizations are accepting donations for much needed items – organize a donation drive with your friends, family, and neighbours

And this is only the beginning! Head out to a movie, go bowling, try one of the new board game cafes, visit the library and curl up with a good book, go tobogganing, try a new hobby, paint pottery at Colour Me Mine or Fire escape (Ooh! I should let Sky know to check that out), bake some cookies, have fun at laser tag, or just take a break from school and work and spend some time catching up with your friends and family!

You could also check out a play, a dance performance, or the orchestra, or maybe a Calgary Hitmen, Flames, or Roughnecks game (but you’ll need tickets for all of these!)

There are always so many things happening in our city! Here are some great places to keep up with what’s happening:
